Endicott Before and After
Round about now is when I wish I could take better pictures.Ah well; hopefully you get the idea.....Got an enamel dial Endicott a few years ago; face looking like a sepia toned antique photo of what it should be. (Due, I surmise, to the laquer going off with age)Spotted a good looking dial on ebay some months ago and had to ask my good friend Oldlyme14 if he could bid on it for me as the vendor would not ship to Australia. Fortunately the vendor did not know what he had and Mark was able to win the bid for a very modest sum. Was excitied to find no refinishers' marks on the back; so it would appear that it is a genuine New Old Stock dial. For $15 the local watch guy swapped the dials and, despite my poor photographs, i trust you will see why I like this version of the Endicott so much. BEFOREYES PLEASE; I'LL HAVE THAT....despite the scuff markAFTER What scuff mark?

**I.N.C.O.M.I.N.G.!!** (& a kind of 'Mini-GTG'!?!)
As many of you know I've been hankering after a Planet Ocean for quite some time now & our very own Chris (The GMTMaster) did me an absolutely fantastic deal on an Orange-Bezelled 45.5mm!! I'd almost forgotten the sheer 'heft' & 'wrist-presence' of the PO as well as the confidence-inspiring feeling of 'indestructibility' that the watch has; & that's exactly what I want from my daily-wearer especially when working on Construction Sites & at our Waste Management & Recycling facility.I've also long-lusted after a 16610 LV & Chris very kindly let me carefully try on one that his shop has set aside for another customer, (only with the owner/customer's permission though which I thought was very professional of Chris ) & although they're a great watch (& I still want one! ) I'm glad I bagged the PO now before Omega & their new ceramics (as well as their prices) get ever-more 'Rolex-like', & I'm sure my 2208.50.00 is going to prove itself more than wo

Railmaster update . . . a thing of beauty . . .
Well, after wearing the Railmaster for few day to let it settle in, I set the time right on the money at time.gov. I checked it a few moments ago and after five days it has lost 2 1/2 seconds. So, it looks like a -1/2 second per day chronometer. I'm very pleased with that performance.As it turned out, the one addition link I added back on January 6th was not enough. So, a few days later I added the second extra link I purchased and removed the 1/2 link segment that originally came on the watch. Thus, a total of 1 1/2 extra links were required for my 8 3/8 wrist.This guy is really growing on me . . . it's like I felt when I got my Rolex TT DJ back in '87 . . . my goodness, could this be . . . after all these years . . . could I once again be in ?

...and the Honeymoon starts!
Weight and comfort of this piece is hard to describe. I can barely feel it. The bracelet snugly hugs my wrist like no other piece I have ever owned (including my rolexes and APs).I probably am part of the minority that has chosen the white over the blue, but simply put: the white dial was the one that sang to me. Elegant yet sporty, and the contrast of the blackened indexes over the white/silverfish dial is a feast to eyes! I have the feeling that this honeymoon is going to last a long time!Happy to be part of this amazing forum!
